In Northern Cyprus, 600 licenses for wearing weapons were issued!

The mayor of the Lapta-Alandzhak-Chancani district, Beskani Atacer sharply criticized the decision of the coalition government on the issuance of 600 permits for wearing weapons.

“What is a resolution on wearing weapons? This country is not used to such decisions and does not approve of them. This is not Texas, but a place where people are used to living in peace and security. This practice only encourages criminal groups and gives freedom to persons with criminal inclinations, ”Ataser said.

He emphasized that as a citizen requires immediate abolition of all previously and now issued permits.
